James takes over late against New York, while Curry leads Golden State back from 25 points down

LeBron James and Stephen Curry headline the NBA Cup night, leading Philadelphia and Golden State past the Knicks and Lakers. James finishes with 20 points, nine rebounds and eight assists in the Sixers’ 98-93 victory. Curry delivers 31 points and six assists, helping the Warriors erase a 25-point deficit in a 112-95 win.

LeBron saves his biggest plays for the closing possessions. After Brunson’s go-ahead three, James restores Philadelphia’s lead with a fadeaway, then helps seal the result with a putback. At 41, surrounded by talented scorers, he remains a trusted option when the pressure rises.

Curry turns a dreadful start into a comfortable victory despite Dončić’s 37 points. He also passes Dominique Wilkins for 18th on the NBA’s all-time scoring list. A new generation keeps advancing, but James and Curry continue to shape the outcome of the biggest moments.
